Warriors hoping to tie up NBA playoff series with Grizzlies in Game 4

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (KGO) -- The Golden State Warriors have an uphill climb in Memphis. The Dubs are trying to bounce back in Game 4 against the Grizzlies after two playoff losses in a row. The Warriors trail the Grizzlies 2-1 in the best of 7 Western Conference semifinals.

A win by the Warriors in Game 4 ties the series, while a loss pushes the team to the brink of elimination.

The team was relaxed during Monday morning's practice and couldn't wait to get on the court to face off against the Grizzlies as they have something to prove.

Marreese Speights will not be playing Monday night so, David Lee will be the first player off the bench.

The Warriors face a challenge since they haven't lost two straight games in a season.

"We have two of the best shooters in the league that haven't had their best shooting nights the last two nights, but if that's the biggest thing we have to worry about then I trust in our guys and I think we're going to do just great again tonight and hopefully get out of here with a victory," David Lee said.

Look for the Warriors to come out fast and furious Monday night because this is a must win, otherwise they have to win three straight games.

They need three wins in the next four games to move on in the NBA playoffs.

Win or lose, the Dubs will head back to Oracle Arena in Oakland to play Game 5. Game 6 would be back in Memphis at FedEx Forum. If there's a Game 7, that would happen at home.
